Claire's go-to crêpe recipe.

Delicious cookie bars enjoyed at christmas time

This is a recipe from Nana, with a few modifications from the online recipe (adding the nuts and chilling the dough). I like it because it's got brown sugar in it. The corn flakes provide a nice crunch while the coconut and oatmeal make it chewy. The recipe can also be found here: https://www.crazyforcrust.com/the-worlds-best-cookies/

This easy homemade chicken pot pie is a family favorite dinner. The creamy pot pie filling is loaded with chicken, vegetables, and topped with tender, buttery buttermilk biscuits. You will love this warm, comforting, and delicious meal!

Jordan's favorite

This homemade eggnog is creamy and sweet with just the right amount of spice. This recipe took me several years to perfect. The egg yolks are tempered for safety so the whole family can enjoy this rich holiday treat. Once you taste it — you'll never serve store-bought eggnog again!

Recipe from Alli Leah. These Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars feature a cinnamon graham cracker crust, two layers of creamy cheesecake, and a streusel topping drizzled with caramel sauce. Perfect for any gathering, they’re sure to be a hit!

Drink that Cass and Jordan discovered in the Virgin Islands. A twist on the Piña Colada, the Painkiller is a rich and fruity cocktail that stays true to its name: It will cure what ails you. Made with dark rum, pineapple juice, orange juice and cream of coconut, the drink was created in the 1970s at the Soggy Dollar Bar in the British Virgin Islands (BVI), where the confluence of warm temperatures and vacation vibes necessitated cold, refreshing libations. And where, with no dock, dollars were bound to get wet as patrons swam ashore.

We spell it "ebelskiver" and call them "aiglestaigles" but the real spelling is "aebleskiver." Aebleskivers go back to our Danish heritage and are specifically Danish. This is the recipe we use which Mom got from Sister Bedurick, an old family friend. The SolvangUSA.com website also published the recipe and it is exactly the one we have used in our family for years. (The city of Solvang is the "Danish capital of America".) For historical purposes, I'm including a picture of the recipe Nana used and there are slight differences between this recipe and Nana's recipe: this recipe uses two eggs whereas Nana's uses three eggs; Nana uses 1 tsp of baking soda this recipe uses 1/2 tsp; Nana's recipe uses 1 tsp of baking soda, this one uses 2 tsp; lastly, this recipe includes 4 T of butter, Nana's doesn't use any. Use Nana's recipe below if you want to go the "original" recipe I grew up with. To read more about the history of aebleskivers, go to https://solvangusa.com/aebleskiver-history-recipe/
